Of Monsters And Men – Empire – Lyrics

Empire by Of Monsters And Men

Feel the ocean as it breathes
Shivering teeth
See the mountains where they meet
Smaller in me

As the wind fends off the waves
I count down the days
Heavy stones filling the weather

I find comfort in the sound
And the shape of the high
How it echoes through the chest
From under the ground

As the hills turn into homes
I fill them with ghouls
Heavy stones filling the weather

From the rain comes a river
Running wild that we create
An empire for you
Illuminate there is a river
Running wild that we create

An empire for you
An empire for two
An empire for you
An empire for two

And I paint your body black
I hide in your hair
And you're staring back at me
Like I wasn't there

As some bodies become sticks
We welcome the fear
Heavy stones filling the weather

From the rain comes a river
Running wild that we create
An empire for you
Illuminate there is a river
Running wild that we create

An empire for you
An empire for two
An empire for you
An empire for two

From the rain comes a river
Running wild that we create
An empire for you
Illuminate there is a river
Running wild that we create
There's a river running wild that we create

An empire for you
An empire for two
An empire for you
An empire for two
